As soon as Brussels Fall Fair is over
a hearty and united effort should be pro.
moted for one or more rousing enter•
taintnnents to provide finances to give the
Town Hall some very accessary interior
fixing up. The Council Chamber re-
quires it badly and the auditorium and
stage worse still. The Hail, although
somewhat antiquated, might be made a
cosy and modern appearing meeting
place without the expenditure of an enor,
moue sum. We would suggest the nam-
ing of a small Committee, headed by
Reeve Plum, to visit other towns with
up-to-date public Hails and see what
they are like and tbereby secure data to
go by. Then another Committee could
arrange for a program, deciding
whether local or outsido talent, date,
&e. Possibly a good ontertaibment by
the home folk, made up of vocal and in-
strumental lnusie, readings, dialogues
and other items would prove attractive,
with the object of the gathertug kept In
mind, Whatever is done should be a
matter of promptness and good fellow-
ship and with a happy Commingling and
a loyal response suecees would be sure to
fellow. What do you say ?
